Driveline

The VX has wheels with 6x139mm bolt pattern, which is what most late model smaller GM trucks and SUVs have. However, in many cases, the GM wheels sharing the same bolt pattern have a center bore that is too small to clear the Isuzu front hub. Most Japanese wheels with the same bolt pattern will fit.(Toyota, Nissan, etc)

Drivetrain US versions fitted with the TOD 'torque on demand' 4WD system with rear LSD - and the JDM versions have the same but with the additional 2WD option

Timeline JDM 1997-1999 - US 1999-2001
